“In politics, If you want anything said, ask a man. If you want anything done, ask a woman.” 
― Margaret Thatcher

Wherever you find a great man, you will find a great mother or a great wife standing behind him -- or so they used to say. It would be interesting to know how many great women have had great fathers and husbands behind them.” 
― Dorothy L. Sayers, Gaudy Night

“We've begun to raise daughters more like sons... but few have the courage to raise our sons more like our daughters.” 
― Gloria Steinem

“I think women are foolish to pretend they are equal to men, they are far superior and always have been.” 
― William Golding, Lord of the Flies

“the wounded child inside many males is a boy who, when he first spoke his truths, was silenced by paternal sadism, by a patriarchal world that did not want him to claim his true feelings. The wounded child inside many females is a girl who was taught from early childhood that she must become something other than herself, deny her true feelings, in order to attract and please others. When men and women punish each other for truth telling, we reinforce the notion that lies are better. To be loving we willingly hear the other’s truth, and most important, we affirm the value of truth telling. Lies may make people feel better, but they do not help them to know love.” 
― bell hooks, All About Love: New Visions

“People call me a feminist whenever I express statements that distinguish me from a doormat.” 
― Rebecca West
